Department of Posts Delivers First ONDC Order
The Department of Posts in India has made a big step forward by successfully delivering its first online order through a system called ONDC.
This order was placed by a group called UdyamWell, which helps small businesses like farmers and artisans.
The Department of Posts acted as the delivery partner, using their wide network to make sure the package reached its destination.
This is important because it shows how the Department of Posts can use technology to help small businesses sell their products online.
Now, sellers can book deliveries online, and the Department of Posts will pick up and deliver their packages.
This makes it easier for small businesses to reach customers all over India.
Department of Posts successfully delivered its first online order through ONDC on January 15, 2026.
The order was placed by UdyamWell, an ONDC-enabled initiative supporting rural entrepreneurs.
Department of Posts acted as the Logistics Service Provider, utilizing its extensive postal network.
The service is operated under the 'Click & Book' model, allowing online pickup requests and digital tracking.
This integration aims to strengthen India's digital commerce ecosystem and support MSMEs and small sellers.
